An apparatus and method for enhancing packet transfer in a network using duplicated copy of data packets are disclosed. Upon classifying a data packet in accordance with a set of predefined packet identifiers, the method for enhancing packet transfer, in one embodiment, generates a replicated packet which is substantially similar to the data packet in response to the result of classification of the data packet. The replicated packet is subsequently forwarded to an application component via a route of non-bearer traffic for facilitating parallel processing.

Disclosed is a novel Packet Voice Gateway (PVG) that is adapted for the line side of the communication network, such as for example in a Digital Loop Carrier Terminal, which provides functionality that can effectively bridge service between a circuit switched based access network and a packet based public network. The ability to so bridge service using the PVG of the present invention allows service operators to extend their circuit switched capital investment by enabling such equipment to be used in connection with a packet based public network.

When an optical network terminal (ONT) is rebooted, for example, after being upgraded, the ONT may be not be ranged and provisioned for some time. This may disrupt services, such as video services provided to a customer. As such, a method and corresponding apparatus of ensuring continuous receipt of video services based on certain conditions in a passive optical network (PON) are provided. The method may include detecting at a PON element a condition indicating a change of states in receipt of video services, starting a timing mechanism having a default value stored in the PON element, and enabling receipt of video services at the PON element for an amount of time defined by the default value. Receipt of video services is enabled by maintaining video services at a second PON element and sending the video services to the PON element. In this way, disruption to video services is reduced.

A multi-access network terminal includes first and second communication interfaces. The first interface is configured to communicate with a first service provider providing services to a user through the first interface with a first type of signal and/or a first type of communications protocol. The second interface is configured to communicate with the first service provider providing services to the user through the second communication interface using a second type of signal and/or a second type of communications protocol. Alternatively, the second interface is configured to communicate with a second service provider providing services to the user through the second communication interface using the first or second type of signal and/or the first or second different type of communications protocol.

An integrated overlay card, an optical line terminal with an integrated overlay card, and a method for operating an optical network. The integrated overlay card may fit at least partially within the optical line terminal. The integrated overlay card includes a wavelength dimension multiplexer/demultiplexer that overlays first signals at a first wavelength onto second signals at a second wavelength, so as to combine signals. The combined signals may be routed to an optical network. In example embodiments, the invention may be used to provide an IP television service.

A method, apparatus, system, and computer program for providing selective advertising. The method includes providing an advertisement request specifying that advertising content be provided and automatically providing the advertising content on at least one network service in response to the advertisement request. The advertising content provided is based upon advertising content preferences pre-specified by a subscriber. Also provided is a method for exchanging payments, which includes determining a payment payable to a network service provider from a subscriber and providing the payment to the network service provider from the subscriber. The payment is determined as a cost for access to a selective advertisement service and/or a provisioning of selective advertising.
